Can you suggest a better gallery viewer - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i dont like the way the standard gallery app shows my files. For instance all the videos are there with thumbnails but no title so some times its hard to see which video is which. When i play the video it brings the title up and i can see what its called but i would like to see a title when looking in the gallery.
Can anyone suggest a way around this or is there a better gallery app in the market that will show my photos and videos with a title.
Thanks

Unlike the stock app this one actually shows your images at their full quality and resolution. o you can zoom into photos.
For browsing videos just open the video player. Maybe you will like mVideoPlayer over the stock app, although it doesn't do 5.1 sound: http://www.appbrain.com/app/afzkl.development.mVideoPlayer

Problems with Camera and Gallery

I have a question I can't figure out. When I record a video and then go to gallery it shows the video there but the initial thumbnail is from an old video. I tried deleting all thumbnails and reloading but then any video I take after that it does the same thing. I've even rendered the video to my pc to see if the thumbnail may be different. Any help would b great. Thank you.
Btw I'm running CM6.1 WITH BLACK MOD
EDIT... PROBLEM SOLVED

[APP] [Gallery] Quick Pic Gallery

If you are wanting a gallery app that is smooth as homemade vanilla ice cream and as fast as a Shelby Cobra, give this one a shot. Free @ the app market. You won't be disappointed!
It mops the floor with the stock Android gallery or any other gallery that I have tried.

I've been using Quickpic on my DX for some time now. It is my go to image app. Loads so much quicker than gallery. Good call!

Just do a search on the market for Quick Pic. You'll find it. The link you supplied takes me to a redirect back tomy isp's search page @ Roadrunner.com

I've been using this on my g tablet as well. The stock gallery just doesn't scan my images (tnt lite 314)
Awesome

Just found this today. Much faster than the stock gallery, and for some reason lately my stock gallery doesn't load all my images :/
I have one question though, can we install this and delete the stock gallery? Will that interfere with anything? Cuz I don't use the stock camera or gallery. Camera360 and QuickPic are what i'm using for my photos.
camera360 (found on Amazon, not Android market) and QuickPic are both nice finds,thanks!
Pretty darn quick. I like it! Thanks for posting.
Anyone knows if you can stream pics from your CIFS/NTFS shared folder on your home server?
I've been using Quick Pic on my phone for a while now. And it's just as great on the tablet.
Hi, can QuickPic totally replace the Gallery?
I don't understand how more people are not frustrated by the fact that picture can't be renamed after taking a shot..?
I would like to be able to rename the pictures as soon sa I take them, and from stock camera I can see the picture taken, but I can't rename it. Can QuickPic be accessed from camera (review of pic - right bottom corner)?
Thanks, Cheers,
Nenad

I do know that after installing QuickPic, I went into File Explorer and navigated to my DCIM folder where my pics are stored and clicked on a .jpg file, then the box popped up asking me which app I wanted to open the file in, Gallery or QuickPic. I set the check mark to "Always use this selection" and then tapped on QuickPic and made it the default .jpg viewer. You will need to do this for each graphics format type; .png, .tif, etc.
I do not know about the camera preview because I am running CM7 at the moment on my tablet. Anyone whom has used CM7 knows the downfall of the camera quality and I try to steer clear of even using the camera with this rom.
You can do as I have stated above, setting the file associations, and see what your camera app uses for the preview when you take a pic with your tablet. Then report back to us and let us know if this, in fact, does actually replace the default preview app for photos from the camera app.
[EDIT] I have just confirmed that if you install QuickPic, when you take a shot with your camera app and tap on the preview selection, it does give you the option of setting QuickPic as the default preview app from the camera.
Nope.
I made a QuickPic a default app to preview Jpegs (and other formats), but the problem is stil there:
From Camera app, when I hit a "image viewer" button, it opens a Galery-like 1 picture screen (on back, the Camera app is shown for taking more pictures).
Is there a way to tweak Android to use QuickPic instead (like "Registry" in Win?)
Cheers
Loving this app
Great app, I've been using it for a while. Was really happy when I found it, the stock Gallery appy is garbage compared to this app.
The pics and icons load right away, instead of sitting there waiting for no reason.

I was using Serendipity 6.3 and now Darky 10.1 rom, and I never got the option to choose - it always shows the preview in stock gallery... Can I remove the it (the stock gallery)?
BTW - I just left a "review" at "App Brain":
The best gallery app (IMHO)! Let me put out the facts others didn't: I just love the "rename" option - one can take a look at the picture, and directly rename it if you want (when the picture is in full screen. It would be nice though if one could do the same from a thumbnail preview - with a long press menu - the option lacks there...). One more minor issue makes me have another picture viewer installed: - if you open a hidden (.name) picture from a folder that has more then one hidden pics, it will show this one, but will not show any oteher by sliding, as would for non-hidden pics. It would be nice to have an option "show/ hidden files", and if the option is on, it would show all the hidden pics, and if it is off, it would show none. If this issue was not present, I would have had just QuickPic installed of all the pic viewers! Once again - thanks for the best gallery app - please make it even better!
Anyone having issues with date sorting? Looking at the details of each photo, the date is right but QuickPic seems to put them in a different order

Gallery app replacement?

Does anyone know of a good gallery app replacement? Both free and paid apps are fine, just after being used to the sense gallery on my EVO I despise the stock android gallery the Galaxy tab has, basically i'm looking for a gallery app that like the sense one can properly view high res photo's instead of scaling up and making them look blurry like the default one, can view Facebook albums like sense, can view videos and properly shows thumbnails for the video's and can share photo's directly to Facebook, I tried Just Pictures which I've seen a lot of people recommend, but like it's name says it's just pictures, no videos, and it can't share to Facebook.
Quickpic is a good gallery replacement. It fixed the problem of blurry jpg images that the stock gallery app causes. It is also free!

[Q] Where are Zoe temp files in 4.2.2?

I was curious about how Zoe worked under 4.2.2 and got surprised when I could not find the pictures, even under another folder as a temp picture.
Zoe under 4.1.2 took 20 pics and a short 3 sec video. All pics where sent then to Dropbox or any other instant upload like G+ and Picasa. It was a mess.
With 4.2.2 Zoe only takes the short video, a small preview and if you like a frame you can take it "from the video". The thing is, the video is a 1920x1088 resolution, but when you extract the picture it is a 4MP (like it was before the update).
Since this is tecnicaly impossible, unless you use upscale which would get you a bad picture compared to a full 4MP one, I would like to know where are the TEMP pictures taken with the short video in 4.2.2
Does anyone know about this? It is not a problem, just something that got me thinking.
Regards,
Santroph.
Zoe MP4 files missing first second of video
Further to your question above, I've noticed that the MP4 zoe videos seem to be missing the ~1s of video which is recorded from before the shutter button is pressed. This seems to be true of the videos sent using the share function as well as when I "explore" to the DCIM folders on the phone. My HTC One demonstrated this with the Android 4.3 and now with the 4.4 versions loaded. I would really like to be able to play the entire video on my PC. To me the ability to retrieve the video from before I pressed the button is one of the great features of the HTC One Camera.

Youtube uploads in 480p only

Hello,
I have noticed when I use the youtube app to upload videos, the video quality changes to 480p whenever the video is uploaded. I have tried setting the camera app to 1080p 60fps and UHD and changing the settings for upload quality in the youtube app, neither helped. This happens when uploading on either wifi or mobile data. Anyone knows whats going on?
Thanks
The issue you're having is solved in the YouTube app. Click on your profile picture in the top right hand corner then the settings option, next choose general and then upload quality. Choose original and what ever resolution you recorded in will be how it is uploaded. Hope this helps mate

i have tried that, it doesn't solve the issue
It is definitely related to the youtube app. No idea how to fix it. What I have noticed is when I watch an uploaded video using any mobile device via youtube app, then the video is in 480p quality, but if i use my PC to watch it, then the video is in the original quality that it was recorded in. Whats going on here?
Same problem
I have same problem. But video quality is 480p even on computer. I uploaded one video more than week ago and it is ok. Three more videos in last 3 days show only in 480p. Backup to google photos is in 1080p.
So problem is only with videos in portrait mode. In landscape it is uploaded in 1080p. I try upload same video to vimeo and it shows 1080p on PC, but quality in android app is lower (i don't see in app setting button to change it).
